That’s 17ing awful and I’ll fight anyone who says otherwise.* Tell me that’s a bad joke?
That is pretty awful! Looks like that weird crap they rolled out a few years ago for baseball. Don’t like the color or the font of number and writing.
I wish they would do one for us that featured the old Nike “MISS STATE” across the chest. They could even hook us up with a interlocking logo reminiscent of our old one for a game.
I may have said this before, but I want us to stake our claim to the term State and use it often. It's short, easier to say, and the more we do, the more people will instantly know what Hail State means.
I also don't get the hate for anything new the university tries. Damn the rampant herd mentality.
This is like the strategy that my company's management team uses, isn't it? You know, roll some idea that is utterly brain-dead out there as if it's going to happen and then, after the inevitable shitstorm occurs, retract it and then roll out something that is only half brain-dead and everybody is so relieved that the first idea got shitcanned that they live with the nearly-as-bad re-do peaceably. Brilliant.
expecting this to happen. Agree. I do know friends I have in other states outside of SEC southeast area confuse Ole Miss with MSU. Marketing STATE more, and HAILSTATE might help us. Some confuse the schools but they know Ole Miss and HAILSTATE as different schools.
This is 100% right. I’m tired of being confused (daily) with OM. A couple of months ago I had a business meeting with a potential client (a U of Minn. alum and season ticket holder). We started talking about the Dawgs and our season/schedule when he interrupted me to ask... “Wait... you guys have had a pretty rough past, right?” I thought he was talking about our years of suckage and said, “Yeah we have had some rough years on the field.” He quickly let me know that he was talking about the racism and a 30 for 30 documentary he saw. I had to instantly interrupt him and let him know he was referring to the other school in our state and NOT Mississippi State Univ.
I think this is a smart move. Push STATE and Hail State down everyone’s throats until people can’t 17ing stand it. Don’t let anyone get us confused w/ OM and their nationwide racist reputation.
